Benefits of technology

The present patent provides a sensor package structure that can reduce glare issues associated with conventional structures. The structure includes a light permeable board and an opaque package body with a ring-shaped support. This design reduces the amount of external light reflected by the support, improving the image sensing quality of the sensor chip.

Problems solved by technology

However, some of the external light passing through the light permeable board is reflected by the supporting layer and induces a flare phenomenon, which can easily affect a sensing result of the sensing region.

first embodiment

[0013]Referring to FIG. 1, a first embodiment of the present disclosure provides a sensor package structure 100. The sensor package structure 100 includes a substrate 1, a sensor chip 2 disposed on the substrate 1, a plurality of metal wires 3 electrically coupling the substrate 1 and the sensor chip 2, a ring-shaped support 4 disposed on the sensor chip 2, a light permeable board 5 disposed on the ring-shaped support 4, an opaque package body 6 formed on the substrate 1, and a plurality of solder balls 7 disposed on a bottom surface of the substrate 1.

[0014]It should be noted that the drawings of the present embodiment are cross-sectional views for the sake of easily describing the sensor package structure 100 of the present embodiment, and portions of the sensor package structure 100 not shown in the drawings shall have corresponding structures. For example, FIG. 1 shows only two of the metal wires 3 and one row of the solder balls 7, but portions of the sensor package structure 1...

second embodiment

[0025]As shown in FIG. 2, a second embodiment of the present disclosure is provided. The present embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, so identical parts shall not be recited again. The differences between the present and the first embodiment will be described in the following.

[0026]Along the horizontal direction of FIG. 2 of the present embodiment, an outer diameter of the light permeable board 5 is less than that of the sensor chip 2. Moreover, the second pads 214 of the sensor chip 2 are arranged outside of the ring-shaped support 4, so that the metal wires 4 are arranged outside of the ring-shaped support 4 and are entirely embedded in the main portion 62 of the opaque package body 6. According to the first and second embodiments, each of the metal wires 4 of the present disclosure can be at least partially embedded in the main portion 62 of the opaque package body 6.

third embodiment

[0027]As shown in FIG. 3, a third embodiment of the present disclosure is provided. The present embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, so identical parts shall not be recited again. The differences between the present and the first embodiment will be described in the following.

[0028]In the present embodiment, the volume of the ring-shaped support 4 is increased to embed a portion of each of the metal wires 3 and further cover the outer lateral side 23 of the sensor chip 2, and the other portion of each of the metal wires 3 is embedded in the main portion 62 of the opaque package body 6.

[0029]In conclusion, the sensor package structures of the present disclosure are constructed through collocating the light permeable board and the opaque package body (e.g., the first surface is at least partially exposed from the opaque package body, and the inner lateral side of the ring-shaped support is arranged in a projection area formed by orthogonally projecting the platform surface on...

Abstract

A sensor package structure includes a substrate, a sensor chip on the substrate, a ring-shaped support, a light permeable board on the ring-shaped support, and an opaque package body formed on the substrate. A top surface of the sensor chip includes a spacing region and a carrying region surrounding the spacing region. The support is disposed on the carrying region. The light permeable board has a ring-shaped notch recessed from an upper surface thereof, and the notch includes a platform surface at least partially located above the support and a wall surface connected to the platform surface and located above the spacing region. A portion of the opaque package body fills the notch and is defined as a light shielding portion. An inner lateral side of the support is arranged in a projection area formed by orthogonally projecting the platform surface onto the top surface.
